I think MS is hoping for Black Tusk's game to be the new Gears.

I meant in terms of forming a strong relationship with a major Engine provider, not necessarily the game itself. With Gears MS and Epic showed off what the UE3 and 360 could do early in the gen.

Ah, good point a showcase game. (I was thinking it doesn't seem like a Gears game, but was at a loss to compare it too.  For the historical part I thought Assassin's Creed, but it's very different in gameplay.)

Plus it may/rumored have some Kinect feature to show how the two can work together on a hard core game.  (Similar to how Skyrim/Mass Effect 3, but better and everyone will have access to it.)
